Surah Al-Qasas Ayat 39 Tafsir (Commentry)



  • Tafseer-e-Naeemi (Ahmad Yaar Khan)
  • Ibn Kathir
  • Ala-Madudi

108. This tells us that the word height conveys the same thought as described in this verse, i.e. falsehood tries to seek greatness. Greatness which is bestowed by Allah Almighty is true greatness. Allah Almighty Himself says: "Whereas the honour is for Allah, and His Messenger, and Muslims" (S63:V8).

109. Because they did not believe in the Day of Judgement. If they did not believe in Allah Almighty then what belief will they have of the Day of Judgement?

Ibn-Kathir

Please refer to Surah Qasas ayat 38 which provides the complete commentary from verse 38 through 42.

(28:39) And he and his hosts waxed arrogant in the land without any right,[54] believing that they will never have to return to Us![55]

Ala-Maududi

(28:39) And he and his hosts waxed arrogant in the land without any right,[54] believing that they will never have to return to Us![55]

54. That is, Allah, Lord of the worlds, alone is entitled to the right to greatness, but Pharaoh and his hosts assumed greatness when they attained a little power in a small territory on the earth.

55. That is, “They thought they were answerable to none and with this assumption they started behaving absolutely independently in their day to day life.”
